To be honest, I enjoy decorating for Halloween more than I do for Christmas. I tend to use restraint and sprinkle a few spooky items here and there. Same idea with the outdoors. Of course..the kids grumble and groan that our house isn't "spooky" enough. Ugh. Drag out the bins of Halloween
I discovered a "trend" so to speak: less pumpkin and orange --> more black and white skulls, bats and ghosts. Seems to work. Outside of the trend, I always use the handmade art projects from the kids that I've saved over the years. This t isn't done quite yet though. Tomorrow, fingers crossed for good weather, I have lights to string and cobwebs to stretch.
And for the other t's Octoberfest party..I have grand plans to spray a patch of pumpkins with glittery, gold paint. An instant decoration for a fun, fall evening. I spied this in a magazine while I was in a waiting room somewhere. Wish me luck! I'll let you know how it goes. ;)
